If Buells didn't exist...

[LeFox]

depends on what you're looking for...

long rides is not a thing for the hypermotard. you can do it, but with only 13liters (3.43gallon) you need a gasstation near you all the time.

but the bike is FUN!, the torque on this thing gives you a big grin on your face.
a 3rdgear roll-on wheelie is no problem with this toy!

i would buy this more as an innercity, funbike for the occasional long ride.

 

[NL90]

Ducati Monster or Yamaha R1
Between looks and power both bikes are there..

you should try the brutale or corsaro then...

preference for me is the corsaro, simply because it's a twin with all the characteristics and also has a very nice sound...

No Questions asked, a V-ROD!!!

I'd definitely go w/the Speed Triple, but the 999, not the 1050.
Just like the stylin' of the 999 better.
Does that make me "Old School"???

Of course, if you changed it to, "If money was no option and Buells didn't exist..."
Well, my answer would change immediately.
I'd be ridin' a Confederate Hellcat!
God do I love that bike! Its GORGEOUS!!!

Saw my first Hellcat @ the Daytona Bikeweek back in March.
Saw this one too...

I saw this bike in Cycle World as a computer animation.
Imagine my surprise when, a couple years later,
I was walkin' down Main Street and low and behold!
Freakin' beautiful WORK OF ART.
Each one hand made, and he only wants $26,000.
You can't get a freakin' stock Harley for that kinda change!

Yeah! I'd want one of those too.
Have his card here somewhere...

[hughes]

ducati monster
triumph speed triple
harley sportster 1200n
triumph thruxton 900

 

[hughes]

heretic or any confederate, like the hellcat 113

 

[Stevexb12Ss]

mv agusta brutale
ktm 990 superduke
mm corsaro
yamaha bt1100 bulldog
yamaha fz1
kawa z1000

 

[Stylie420]

MV Agusta, Dig the brutale but I'd have to go with the f4-1000s 1+1, the blue and silver carbon fiber one from 2005. Damn that thing is sweet, don't really like how they ride though. Maybe I was just uncomfortable sitting on a 27K engine on two wheels. But you gotta love the exhaust!

 

[thirdbuell]

Ducati or RC51, no doubt.

 

[devildog3042]

if buells didnt exist, i robably would have killed myself on a gixxer by now.

 

[bleblanc03]

Most likely, Suzuki SV (1000 made naked?) or a Monster (800 S2R?).

Superdukes are bad, too....

Motoguzzi Griso 1100 is sweet, but a little too cruiser-ish.

Maybe a Triumph Street Triple or a BMW F800S.

Ecosse, Aprilia, MV Agusta, Confederate? These bikes are no where near the price range of Muell....

 

[strmvt]

the beemer bike in paycheck havnt researched it to see what bike model it is

 

[scobbie001]

Ducati Monster 696 by a long shot, and then maybe a KTM Superduke...but I'd prefer to stick with my beloved Buells.

 

[mccluresm]

Hyosung GT250 because its odd enough to interest me and looks like the bastard child of a Blast and SV (and its actually small enough for my short legs)

 

[LeFox]

got a new favorite: yamaha mt-05

if it's anything, or a inmprovement of the mt-01...150nm @ 3750rmp

2 bad it's not in production (yet?)

 

[burnteyes]

Actually the day I bought my buell i went to buy a Speed Tripple!!! And the people at the triumph dealer made me mad so i walked across the street and walked out with the xb12scg... but I really really really want to ride a superduke but noone has one in my area

 

[1sexynucca]

Ducati 1098 or a Gsxr 750.... love the 08 Honda Cbr1000 but thats too much bike for me right now....

 

[kakkarott3]

I would be tearing up the streets on an exile chopperhttp://www.exilecycles.com/index.php?section=11
